Getting antsy
(Preview)
Does anyone know if this rain has opened the mouth of the Russian and let a few steelhead in? I haven't tried for them since February and have the urge to go out and get frustrated. Nothing like a day on the river tossing flies for 5 or 6 hours. Good exercise if nothing else. I think I've lost my innate op...

Surprise on the Yuba
(Preview)
It was my lucky day on the Yuba. Started out slow. Caught a few fish down by Hammond moved upriver and caught this weird looking fish. I am guessing it was blown downriver out of Deer Creek.

Planning to leave the East Bay 5:30am ish and fish till its dark or hypothermia sets in. Whichever comes first. Anyone want to com...

I was going to start at the Wohler Bridge and work my way down. Any input from people who have fished the Russian, or have good knowledge on steelhead i...

I arrived to...

Little Truckee

Just a heads up that the LT is going to be dropping to 15 cfs this week. They are doing their annual maintenance on the dam and need to lower the water. Trout Unlimited worked with the powers that be to do a gradual drop to give those fish a chance to move.

Tenkara Fishing
(Preview)
Well it has been fun fishing all over the mountains this summer!! Had the Tenkara Rod in the vest the whole time. I have found that it is the best way to fish dry flies. And if you are on a river with tons of fish it can make it just a bit more challenging. Caught some lahontans, browns and rainbows. Hit t...

Beardsley Afterbay

So I was reading on Kiene's board that the Beardsley Afterbay has taken a big hit as far as fish are concerned. Anyone been out there this year with a different report? Apparently the fish were all eaten by a crazed pack of otters. Maybe it just fishes better in spring and fall?? Picked up an Orvis Acc...

Bass fishing at Lake Casitas.

Went bass fishing at Lake Casitas last month and got a few decent fish with guide Mark Mitrany. There were bait balls all over the lake, but no bass chasing them. There's a lot to learn here... Here's a nice video of a topwater bass on a white gurgler along with a pic: http://youtu.be/ssOlibuLSI0

This is a trend that I noticed starting last summer. Two low water years has really hurt the wild fish population. Then to to...
